Anna and I wanted to remind you all that Arts & Faith's own Scott Derrickson is teaching a film seminar, "Transcendent Darkness," at our Glen Workshop West this summer.
From the class description:
"This seminar and its accompanying discussion will be unafraid to confront the grotesque in the context of grace, in the grand tradition of Flannery O’Connor. In the end, Derrickson believes, confronting the darkness in us is often not only a prelude to understanding grace, hope, and redemption, but can itself be an experience of the divine."
And if you want to come (to any workshop at the Glen, not just Scott's), we want to give you a discount-- $75 off for being a A & F member!

Hi all,
Usually, the Arts and Faith website automatically validates new users shortly after they register. However, every so often, through no fault of the new user, the system holds them in limbo and doesn't allow them to post more than a certain amount until they are validated. We're not sure why this happens, but it the only solution we know of is to have one of the administrators, such as myself, manually validate the new user's account.
If this seems to be the case with your account, or with someone you've seen on the boards, please respond to this thread or send me a PM (personal message) and I'll get that account validated!
And thanks for bearing with our quirks!
